I believe you will stop hearing the beep when you push the button when the batteries are low- this should signal new batteries are needed.

When you push the button there is a beep that humans can hear at the same time, so you know when it's working. Also, there is an LED that flashes.

I just replaced the battery in 1 of 2 units that I have when it displayed the low battery indicator. That unit was installed June 2008, and now it's November 2014, 6 years on a battery. I have a second unit that was installed July 2008, and the battery died January 2010. I tested that replaced battery now, and it still tests as good. This is already nearly 5 years on the replacement battery so far, therefore I assume the issue with the first one was a weak initial battery, and not the unit itself.

You can use the battery replacement tool to find the right one you need. Additionally you can measure the L x W x H of your current battery and compare it to the suggestion from the tool.

If you mean when running on battery, the built-in display will give you estimated runtime based on connected active load. If you mean when will battery/ies need to be replaced, that can vary greatly anywhere between two years and much longer. Once a year for the first two years, unplug UPS and see if estimated runtime matches actual runtime - if close batteries are still good. After two years maybe start doing this test every 6 months or so.

I don't know. I have not had to replace battery as of yet. You might call the company. They were very helpful to me.

Agree with Frank ... some lithium ion batteries have a life span of as little as 3 years. Yours is likely closer to 10 years old. Before you replace the battery, though, plug the camera in to power and see if it will turn on. If not, it may just be time for a new camera.

You don't....just replace the old battery with the fresh one...it will take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours. It may seem like it is a dud, but give time and hopefully, it recharges as expected (30-days to return if you suspect it to be a real dud). My replacement took about 30 some hours to be fully charged. In the mean time, I kept getting some odd codes from on my Ademco panel. Once sufficiently charged, the codes went away. Oh, yeah, after sufficiently charged, it gave me a code that my battery in the motion sensor also needed to be replaced. My old battery and the motion sensor battery lasted more than six years.

I just replaced the OEM battery for the first time due to it's beeping alarm reminder. For once it was during the day. It lasted 22 months.

We've not had a problem with this issue; have not had to replace battery yet. If it's still under warranty I would send it back to manufacturer.

Buy a new battery. Everything gets old and there are lots of ways to ruin then even if it's not.

Once it's set, you're good to go. I installed mine well over a year ago. After unplugging to go out on the lake, I just replug it in when I return and it "remembers" the setting. I haven't had to replace a battery in two years.

Yea, I noticed the same thing. I got a unit in September and a month later in October I had to replace the battery. I thought that perhaps the original unit sat on the shelf for a while and that the battery was bad. Unfortunately the weather turned for the worse since October so I have not used it since and I do not know how this next battery is going to hold up.

But, to your second question, the battery is not replaceable. There are sites on the internet where you can find out how to replace the battery though. My guess is that by the time the battery dies it will be time for a new model anyway. The battery should last at least 5 years I am being told.

I have not had to change the battery yet. If you have a Batteries Plus in your area, I would suggest you take it there just to get their advice. That is what I will do.

Yes, make sure to follow the instructions on charging the battery or it will need to be replaced. �
